Which GTX 780 Should I Get?

CoCoisConfused

Which 780 

 

EVGA http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130918

or

Asus http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121779

 

I would go for the Msi Lightning but I don't like the black and yellow color scheme.

 

I will be doing a red and black color scheme build some time in 2014 but if I go EVGA I would

have a friend paint it (He's not a amature)

Wait for the 9xxx series from AMD if you are going to buy it in 2014...

I like the color scheme of Noctua fans. Deal with it. Forget about the bad memories of the past.

Forget about the bad memories of the past, take the good ones along with you through the present, and look forwards to the good things that will come in the future.

They get revealed this month and will probably be released before the end of the year. Maxwell from Nvidia will probably be out by Q2 2014.

No, Maxwell is Nvidia's next architecture. Haswell is Intel's current architecture. After Haswell comes Broadwell.
